No "Use Security Key with Fingerprint" option about webauthn HOT 12 CLOSED

I don't have access to Android Pie with a fingerprint reader, which is the only platform I am aware of (though the other issues) that supports fingerprints with webauthn, so I can't test. iOS definitely doesn't support this (and Safari doesn't support webauthn at all anyway), and I imagine that it would need to be supported by a device driver for any third party USB fingerprint readers, on Windows for example. I know the person who tried Android Pie did get it to work wit the two code changes I subsequently commented. If iOS implements webauthn, I shall certainly try to get that working (but I'd bet they concentrate on face recognition)

I think you just need Android 7+ (Nougat) now:

OK, but same applies: I only have iOS, Windows and Mac. I'll see if the emulator supports fingerprint.

Hi,

While I try using my Fingerprint, am getting 'Notreadableerror: an unknown error occured while talking to the credential manager' but my Screen lock option working fine. Do you have any idea to resolve this?

Thanks.

No idea, I’m afraid. This seems to be a message generated by the browser.

@OB01 you should have a look at https://webauthn.spomky-labs.com/ and the associated project. Works fine with Android 9 and Chrome using the fingerprint reader. Tested and approved!

@davidearl what about contacting @Spomky and work together?

@Oxmoze - I've not had much luck with any other versions, this is the best PHP example I've found.

Hi all,

@Oxmoze each library has its own maintainer and way of life. Even if I will be happy to see more contributor/maintainer, that’s not easy to do it.

@OB01 as far as I know only last releases of Android (9 and 8.1) allow the use of the fingerprint reader as authenticator. Other versions only support screen unlock or BLE/NFC/USB authenticators. I may be wrong, but it looks like this is not a technical issue, just the Android OS that have not be attested by the FIDO Alliance.

@davidearl Android Pie is not the only platform that supports fingerprint readers. It works fine on a Mac Book Pro with Chrome. Safari support is ongoing (I had no success with it).

I'm no expert for Webauthn, but might this be caused by missing self attestation? Because using Firefox w/ Win10 works fine for places like webauthn.io or the Spomky-Labs version, but also doesn't work for this package ...

On your Mac you can use Chrome, which supports Touch ID as fingerprint device, if it‘s a current Macbook.

If my Mac had a fingerprint reader, I would, of course, have tried that. But it doesn't.

See #26 - confirmed now works on Mac fingerprint reader
